Richard “Dickie” Ellis McAllister, 82, transitioned into eternal rest on Wednesday, February 22, 2023 at his home in Free Union. Dickie was born on December 19, 1940 to the late Richard W. McAllister and Myrtle (Gibson) McAllister. In April 1963, Dickie married the love of his life, Rosa Lee Batten. Together they had their children, Richard L. and Rebecca (Becky). Dickie was in the Army Reserves prior to working at ACME Visible Records and then retiring from VDOT. During his time with ACME, Dickie played on their softball, basketball, and bowling teams. In addition to sports, he loved spending time outside, always finding time to hunt, fish, camp, garden and farm. Dickie loved his community and those around him and was an active member in the Free Union Lodge Hall. Most of all, Dickie loved spending time with his family and ‘making memories’ with them. Later in life, he still enjoyed the outdoors on his porch with friends and family always stopping to say “Hello” and enjoy the sun. He cherished the moments he spent with his camping family and enjoying time on the water at Buggs Island with friends. Dickie leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife Rosa Lee; his son, Richard and his wife Pam; his daughter, Rebecca (Becky) Courtney and her husband, Keith; his grandchildren, Christina Mundell and her husband Andrew, Christy Epperson, Justin Carter and his wife, Tara, and Dallas Carter; his great grandchildren, Cecil Ray Mundell, Ben Epperson, Noah Epperson, Lilly Epperson, Conner Epperson, Callen Carter and Isaiah Carter; and also his brother, Carl “Boogie” McAllister and his wife, Linda. A Celebration of Dickie’s Life will be held at 2pm on Sunday, March 5, 2023 at Free Union Church of the Brethren. The family welcomes all to join them for a fellowship meal immediately following the service. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks you to make a donation in Dickie’s honor to The Free Union Church of the Brethren, P.O.Box 213, Free Union, Va 22940 or to Hunter’s For the Hungry.
